About this map

Beech Hill Pond sits at the heart of this landscape, surrounded by the townships of Otis, Mariaville, and Ellsworth. The 1980s terrain is characterized by a dense network of interior waters, from Graham Lake in the southeast to the secluded Floods Pond in the northwest. Local education and community life center on the Beech Hill Sch and the Town Landing, while the presence of several gravel pits suggests the local importance of aggregate mining for road building and maintenance.

Transport routes like Carr Road and Dority Road wind through the hills, connecting family-named landmarks like Pyles Cem and Greenwood Cem. The drainage patterns are dominated by the West Branch Union River and the East Br Union R, which flow through the Trout Brook Flowage. The map details many landings and points, including Perry Landing and Salisbury Point, which reflect the area's long-standing orientation toward its recreational and working waterfronts.
